The Emerging Leaders in Environmental and Energy Policy Network

June 21, 2017 to June 22, 2017

Between June 21-22, the Atlantic Council, in partnership with the Ecologic Institute, hosted the 2017 ELEEP Final Conference “Tipping Points: Finding Energy-Climate Balance conference”.

Tipping Points gathered the top leaders under forty years old from around the world to discuss one of the most pressing challenges the millennial generation is inheriting: how to balance mitigating and adapting to climate change with the need for secure and reliable energy to fuel our future. The conference was a bipartisan and cross-generational dialogue about the future, featuring a lineup of senior speakers alongside the young leaders of the Millennium Fellowship Program that represent the full spectrum of views on energy and climate from both sides of the Atlantic in order to make a sustained call-to-action, including former US Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz, former EPA Administrator Gov. Christie Todd Whitman, Chairman and CEO of the Libra Group George Logothetis, CEO of Meridiam Thierry Deau, and Campaign Director for Greenpeace USA Leila Deen, among many others.
